The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has confirmed that Deep Depression 01B made landfall on the Andhra Pradesh coast, bringing heavy rains and strong winds to the area. As of latest reports, the system is anticipated to weaken gradually throughout the weekend.

The IMD issued warnings for coastal districts in Andhra Pradesh, advising residents to remain alert for potential flooding and associated hazards due to the forecasted heavy rainfall.
